Need to establish a new Obispado with an interim visitor because distance to Guadalaxara is extremely far. Only four villages pay Diezmos, three to church of Valladolid and one to Guadalaxara. There should be an administrator to collect the diezmos from that fertile colony. Audit of hacienda results in it beginning to pay taxes and in a short period of time will produce enough for the troops and to fix the reales minas without using the Erario. Tampico is very convenient for opening the port to trade with Veracruz and Campeche and would change all the products that Nuevo Santander has and change transport time. In relation to the secret mission to investigate the behavior of Escandon it is suggested that for his admirable behavior in 1748, for the villages, and the commerce he opened and mantained in Santander, Soto la Marina, the size of his haciendas and his advanced age, it is recommended that his position as governor be given to someone Young, who is more able to travel and solve problems of the colony. folio 338,is an accounting of the compania volante Caballeria del Seno Mexicano. Last document a letter from the virrey to Soto la Marina, and others to protect missionaries. (D. Bautista, November 1989)
